Verified target

Hyper-V Generation 2 is the primary virtual QA target for the current Nulx Linux development line. The current exact contrast-refined candidate passed live boot, installation to a newly created empty virtual disk, graceful shutdown, verified ISO ejection, direct installed-disk boot, and arrival at the Nulx greeter without the automatic virtual keyboard. Testing stopped at authentication.
